dfitzo53 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 The "Fair" Tax is a demonstrably bad idea, and the fact it hasn't seen the light of day is one of the few positive things you can say about our tax system. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like UK, Japan, and even Russia. Another program so "complicated" only we can't figure it out : / The problem isn't that we can't figure it out, it's that lobbyists pay congress critters to **** us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 (edited) I can only imagine the uproar though if/when the IRS does taxes for people and tells them they owe $4k in taxes, plus penalties. Edited February 21 by The Evil Genius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmirOfShmo Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I use TurboTax. It does a good job of walking you through the areas you need to hit based on your situation. The 2023 tax version allows you to upload docs, take pictures of docs and/or import them from a different source (brokerage account, bank account, etc.) I use QuickBooks Self Employed for work which integrates directly into TurboTax. TT also allows you to file directly with Fed & state. Good stuff... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I guess I'm boring as I've always done my own taxes. Especially with all the free filing options online these past 2 decades. Usually do them in Feb and wait to file in April since we always owe. 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me the carfax like every other country? Payments and payment plans should only be through IRS and reasonable, no third parties trying to get a cut. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan since a Fetus Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I’m glad we don’t pollute the earth like trees. Man just walking down the street, decides to drop his seed on the dirt and boom 196 million babies are born. he walks away saying “ain’t nobody got time for that.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacks 'n' Stuff Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 (edited) So I was just at the gym squatting down in front of the preacher curl, rotating the weight that I had already done two sets with and some dude walks over and starts doing dumbbell curls right on my machine. I’m, you know, high, so I’m not going to kick up a fuss and I just politely move over to the next one and grab another barbell off the rack. And as I’m repping it out, like a beast, I realize that that 70 pounds that I had been doing was no longer challenging me, and then I realized that the 20 year depression I have been suffering from ever since my grandfather died is because the biggest lesson he had always tried to impart on me was to never stop challenging myself and I had done a great disrespect to his memory. I am having a major psychological breakthrough right now, and in fact, i’m seeing things clearly for the first time in 20 years. I don’t know how to explain it, but I have been living in a fog. I’m going to take some time away to do some deep self reflection and figure out what I have to do to get back to being the best version of sack and stuff. Love you guys. Whelp… Nevermind. that journey is over. Edited February 22 by Sacks 'n' Stuff 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 7 hours ago, EmirOfShmo said: Jesus Christ people are stupid: Don't call 911 to see if it works amid AT&T outage, Mass. State Police say Amid the nationwide cellphone outage affecting AT&T's network on Thursday, people have "flooded" 911 centers in Massachusetts with calls, looking to see if those calls will work. "Please do not do this," state police said on social media, adding that anyone who can place a phone call will be able to call 911 as well.

China Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 OK, I'm tired of being spammed with requests for customer satisfaction surveys. I go to the bank, they request I respond to a survey; I take a flight, they request I answer a quick survey; I rent a car, they request a rating; I get pest control service they request a rating; I go to the doctor, they ask how they did, etc., etc. It's tedious and I'm not going to answer a survey for everything I do in life. GTFOOH with that crap. 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in the same category as when in-person retailers ask me for an email address to buy something. **** off, I want to exchange my money for this thing, you don't need to contact me later for any reason. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hope is this makes us all do a double-take on rocketing forward with technologies and leaving their analog predecessors in the dust for extinction. We've gone so far to make the ridiculous assumption we don't need certain systems that could be used as a backup because the new bright and shinny BS we keep making. I have a landlines for a reason, how many people in the country have one anymore? Sure our technology gives the world we have possible now, but if we lean, too much in it, how quick will all this goes to **** if something happens to it? Now we know not to assume things like our cell phones are infallible from the same regular f ups everything else in our civilization is susceptible to. What we do with that, now on the same page, is totally a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
